Y'all talking about how much of a disappointment this is for not opening in Florida... they're building it in Orlando right now. Just wait a few years LOL.
Aren't the point of NFTs to sell them for a higher price later on? Why would you buy an NFT for thousnads of dollars tied into a dead franchise that's just going to get more and more obscure every year therefore less money to be made?
Everyone's talking about the style and I actually think it looks OK though it falls short of recapturing the look of Pre-Code New York cartoons mixed with the beautiful color cartoons that Disney was doing at the same time the game did perfectly (not that I expected it from a Netflix series).
The bigger problem if this is meant to be a tribute to 30's cartoons is the humor is very dialogue based instead of visual as you would expect from the time period.
Oh boy, can't wait to go on Mario Kart the Ride starring Chris Pratt located a few hundred feet from Jurassic World the Ride starring Chris Pratt at Universal Studios. Maybe they'll remake the Mummy with Chris Pratt so that they can have a Chris Pratt ride trifecta.
Chris Pratt. Chris Pratt. Chris Pratt. Are you tired of me saying Chris Pratt?
Has 80's TMNT ever actually aired on Nickelodeon? Just weird that it's already has the same amount of characters as Spongebob (and I'm assuming the two other turtles are also going to be here so there might be MORE) for a show that's only in here because their parent company acquired them.
Yes I know that there's been reboots of TMNT, but that's not what's being represented here. It's 80's Turtles.
For a second when I saw the title I thought this was referring to the Switch finally getting the Disney Afternoon Collection from other platforms. Sucks that it's just the Aladdin + Lion King collection already on Switch with one extra game.
Weird, considering how the Hollywood version won't be open for at least another year. Wonder if all this merchandise was meant for that leaked Nintendo store for Citywalk and that could've been delayed for another year or two or even cancelled.
@John_Koshiro I haven't watched Space Jam 2, but I've heard there's some message about the LT characters being family or something? When most of them either don't know each other or if they do wants to kill them.
It's what both Blooper Bunny and Invasion of the Bunny Snatchers were parodying 30 years ago brought to the big screen.
@Adamario Great list, but Kung-Fu was a port of the IREM arcade game Kung Fu Master so they would need permission from the shambling remains of IREM before they could bring it to NSO.
@TheFrenchiestFry Unless if SEGA straight up becomes an RPG company first and foremost, I don't see it happening. Most people even people who haven't played video games know who Sonic is, can the same really be said about Jack Frost?
Wish WB would invest in a fully animated Looney Tunes movie with zero reused footage or live action (and preferably 2D)... instead of another Space Jam.
I'd be very interested to heard his side of the story about those first few E3s he was apart of, where he really cultivated that tough guy/Reggienator image that would follow him throughout his career
@Mr-Fuggles777
7 million+ is great for a Capcom game on any platform, that would make it their 7th best selling game of all time according to their investor relation's website: https://www.capcom.co.jp/ir/english/finance/million.html
If it got into the Top 10 best selling Switch games (a minimum of more than 10.4 million as of now) it'd be the second best selling Capcom game of all time.
Also as far as I know sales numbers for the Doom and Witcher 3 Switch ports individually have not been released by Bethesda and CD Projekt Red respectively, so of course they're not on the unofficial list regardless if they sold a million or not.
@Andrew5678 Considering that they have less than 10 games released for Switch in China over the course of over a year and a half, yes it will be a while if they ever get an official localized version.
Even as someone who's not nostalgic about SMB or has ever played it, I have to say I'm not a fan of how they redesigned the main monkey. Especially how his eyeballs are the same color as his fur.

Re: Photos Of Animal Crossing: New Horizons Monopoly Surface Online
